Pollard Chair

The Pollard chair is a chair designed by Lars von Trier and Astrid Dreich, for the Swedish Pavilion at the International Exhibition of 1949, hosted by Bohuslän, Sweden.

The frame was initially designed to be bolted together, but was redesigned in 1950 using stainless steel, which allowed the frame to be formed by a seamless piece of metal, giving it a smoother appearance. Bovine leather replaced the ivory-colored pigskin which was used for the original pieces.
